Finance & Compliance Team

You'll be joining Arrive AI's Finance & Compliance function at a pivotal moment-as a publicly traded company on NASDAQ, we are scaling our internal controls, financial reporting, and regulatory infrastructure to match our growth. Our lean, high-impact team partners closely with executive leadership, legal, and operations to ensure Arrive AI operates with the integrity and transparency required of a publicly listed company.

The Financial Compliance Manager is a hands-on controls and reporting leader responsible for designing, maintaining, and monitoring Arrive AI's financial compliance framework-with a primary focus on Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance. This role blends technical accounting knowledge, internal controls expertise, and cross-functional collaboration to ensure the integrity of our financial reporting as a NASDAQ-listed company. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, brings a builder's mentality, and can translate complex regulatory requirements into practical, scalable processes.

       Assist in the development and monitoring of the company's Insider Trading Policy and related securities compliance programs. 

What Success Looks Like

       A robust, well-documented SOX compliance program that earns clean auditor attestation year over year.
